Selling my barely used WindUPWinch to buy a Tow Boogie! This is an electric, rechargeable, portable winch for learning to foil, pump or tow into waves! I’ve only used it once for foiling and once for snowboarding, worked great for both. These are made in France and I think I may be the only person in the US with one. Where I foil, the tow boogie makes more sense, so I am selling this to contribute to my tow boogie fund. More info can be found on their website:

Its very quiet and has a long line with small floating handle that allows you to go out really far. It can be controlled by a wireless remote (same remote as FoilDrive) which allows you to operate the winch while you are foiling, or by the wired controller attached to the winch (requires 2 people). Once the trigger/throttle is released, the line pays out effortlessly allowing you to hold the handle and pump back out away from the winch. When you get to where you want to turn around, just spin the board and gently pull the trigger and winch will pull again. Its VERY powerful for it’s size. It has a lanyard that allows you to tie it to something heavy or stake it into the ground. I am also including a storage bag, wireless remote charger, ground stake and a spare spool that came with it.
I paid $2,202.41 USD with shipping, see attached invoice. It was a bit of a struggle to get it imported to the US when I bought it in '23, might not even be feasible anymore with all the new tariffs and restrictions. Save yourself the hassle and enjoy a fun new foil toy!
Selling for $1800 USD plus shipping.
